[PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 059/110] ARM: mvebu: do not register custom DMA operations when coherency is disabled

[Luis Henriques]

3.16.7-ckt13 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni at free-electrons.com>

This patch is a partial backport of commit ef01c6c36bb8 ("ARM: mvebu:
remove Armada 375 Z1 workaround for I/O coherency"). This commit was
merged in v3.19, so kernel versions later than v3.19 are not affected
by the problem that this commit fixes.

It does not make a lot of sense to backport this commit entirely,
since it is mainly removing some no longer useful code. However, this
commit is also making sure that the bus_register_notifier that
register the custom DMA operations that should be used for HW I/O
coherency does not get registered when said HW I/O coherency is not
enabled.

This is particularly critical since we have decided to disable HW I/O
coherency completely in all kernels < 4.0, to be on the safe side,
while experimenting a new implementation of the HW I/O coherency in >=
4.0.

Without this commit, kernels earlier than 3.18 have the custom DMA
operations normally used for HW I/O coherency registered (they don't
do cache maintenance operations), while HW I/O coherency is
disabled. It essentially causes every DMA transfer to transfer
garbage.

The issue fixed by this commit was introduced by 5ab5afd8ba83 ("ARM:
mvebu: implement Armada 375 coherency workaround"), but it was not
visible until now since it didn't cause any problem when HW I/O
coherency is enabled.
